2K Sports announced today that it's currently developing a Major League Baseball-themed minigame compilation title called MLB Superstars, leaving Wii owners like myself scratching their heads and wondering why we just can't get a port of MLB 2K8 for Nintendo's motion-tracking console.
Fully utilizing the Wii's motion sensing capabilities and easy pick-up-and-play functionality, MLB Superstars puts a brand new spin on classic games with Baseball Pachinko, Baseball Bocci, and Baseball Golf.
